Sucks to hear about the carb issue. Carefull it isn't leaning it out like you mentioned, I think Sharps40 had a lean issue and burned his engine if I remember. Good luck

Yeah I got the carb running good. It is running rich I can say for sure. And I make sure to run no less then 92 octane in it. Sharps40's issue had to do with a lean mixture and to advanced timing, and I believe low octane fuel had something to do with it also. Thanks.

If I didn't give you all the needed brackets let me know which one is missing. Maybe I can find it.

Thanks Keith...It's hard to tell...You know the Long bracket you gave me? I think there is one more of those...Looks like it according to the diagram. Thanks. T.J.

**TJ's Chevy** · 11-25-2013, 08:25 PM

Picked up my new to me spare tire fender. Bolted on...mocked up the carrier a little. Fender is gonna need work, but at least I have one!

Glad to see you got the carrier and tire mounted. They take awhile to get used too, but I really enjoy mine. Especially when I lost a tire stem a few weeks back in the rain. Made the spare tire change in NASCAR time.

Thanks! Yeah I am used to mine already! Love the looks of it also. I am able to fit up to 30 inch tires, which I am currently running, if I need to. My spare is a 75 series 15 so I believe that adds to 29 inches.

4dranch · 12-02-2013, 09:46 PM

Come on down and give me a hand splitting. That's the one thing the girls don't do

LOL! Well just send me a plane ticket to get down there and I will! lol! Then I can see the truck while I am at it!!!! Yeah, The gals I know around here are brought up using wood stoves....so wood splitting for them is nothing new....cause they know if they don't help they don't get heat...and if they don't get heat the house is sure gonna be cold during the winter! lol!

Dillon Rock · 12-02-2013, 11:17 PM

Ain't that the truth, lol. I hauled that 1/2 cord of wood (150 bucks, not a bad deal round my parts up here) and ol' Abby just cruised on down the road like it were nothin, heh heh heh. Now we just need to get you one of those step bumpers like my truck has T.J.

Yeah! LOL! HOW DO YOU ALWAYS READ MY MIND!!! I was thinking of one of those bumpers myself! WOWZA!!!

Dillon Rock · 12-03-2013, 08:54 PM

I actually need to find the grab bars that go on the back by the tailgate. Just got the spotlight installed, took a minute, but it works and looks good, pictures to follow soon

NEWFISHER · 12-21-2013, 09:58 PM

Nice hitch. What issues are you having with the wiper motor? Mine wouldn't park and I found the problem.....ground missing on the case
